We're hoping this site becomes your #1 source for all things 

Babe Ruth, but for the site to be successful, we'll need a lot of cooperation and volunteer participation.

In order to keep the site current and useful, we need game summaries, plus any other team news of interest to players, parents and fans. It's too hard to manage random submissions,  so  each team needs to designate a website  coordinator (Publicity Person) to channel their information through.

If you'd like to volunteer for that position with your team, first confirm with your team's manager and then contact Jim @ webmaster@alamedababeruth.com.

all you have to do is succeed RIGHT NOW; keep hitting, keep the rally alive."
